Big Eyed Rabbit

WoMag on Big Eyed Rabbit

Matt Robert at the Worcester Magazine writes about how the band got started.

Titles aside, though, Big Eyed Rabbit plays a loud, joyful and visceral stew of John Lee Hooker groove built on Jeff’s deep bass and Duncan’s swinging, forceful drumming, underpinning Jon’s analog tube amp growl, rife with open-note harmonics and reliable alternating thumb-picked bass notes, while he sings about matters of love or relationship entanglements.

The story is in the behind-the-scenes aspects of the band: the vetting process that brought this particular lineup together, the approach to the stage act and recording, and a general philosophy that, though backed by unshakable conviction on the part of the band members, can nevertheless be difficult to articulate.

“Rob and Steal” (live), by Big Eyed Rabbit: Recorded at the Dive Bar, this down-and-dirty blues groove with local music titans Jon Short, Duncan Arsenault and Jeff Burch is a shot of bourbon after a long day. The recording on the vocals is a little muddy (live, whattaya gonna do?) but oh, my, that guitar has a way of washing the world away and just letting you sink into it.” – Victor D.

RIP Scott Ricciuti

We all mourn the loss of our dear dear friend and musical comrade Scott Ricciuti. We are playing tonights show at The Lucky Dog for him. The Lucky Dog has graciously let us start at 9PM so that we could play a little longer than we originally planned. We all feel blue and we all feel the need to get out some emotion tonight. Like any good musician, Scott communicated best through his music. We hope to do that for him this evening.
